Where Scotland's AI Talent is Developed

The AI Innovation Park will be developed across 30 acres within Strathclyde Business Park, joining an established community of 6,300 professionals.

This thriving ecosystem of multinational giants and local businesses provides the perfect environment for Scotland's AI future. Working with local educational institutions, we're creating pathways from schools to high-value careers. This isn't about importing talent from elsewhere. It's about developing the talent that's already here.

The Golden Triangle: Strathclyde Business Park sits at the intersection of the M8, M74 and M80, making it extremely accessible from most central-belt locations.
